Halfway There and a Home for Christmas!

Today I am 20 weeks and half way done with this pregnancy.  I must say this pregnancy is going much faster than the first, probably due chasing around a toddler all day!  It is funny how with the second, I find myself much more grateful for the nine month waiting period and need all the time I can get to prepare for this little guy to join our family!  I am getting more and more excited about having a little boy everyday and am trying to make the tough transition from baby girl things to looking for a baby boy.  

I have the worst blogger ever and have so much to update on.  First and foremost, we are getting a house for Christmas...literally.  We are closing on our first home on the 21st and yes I do think that buying a house four days before Christmas is the worst possible timing EVER!  So much money in an already expensive month.  Oh well, we are thrilled to be in a home of our very own and living on our own again.  It really is all I need this Christmas!  I am lame and don't have any pictures of the house, I keep finding myself trying to remember little details about it that I didn't take in when I was last inside.  I will post pics once we are all settled in, which quite honestly could be a while.

 Addie is at the most fun/frustrating stage yet!  I really have a love hate relationship with the age she is at right now.  She is hilarious, sweet, funny, curious, silly, and then others time she just makes me want to scream.  She is getting to be such a stinker and she knows just what to do to push my buttons, but oh I love that little girl!  We have been trying to do some Christmas festivities this month despite all the craziness of buying a home.  We went to the Kaysville light parade, all five floats of it!  We also went on a hayride through the Layton Park Lights and Addie absolutely loved it!  Of course my camera died right when we started the hayride!  Addie met Santa and Mrs. Clause and did surprisingly well.  She didn't cry, but was very serious and concerned the whole time!  Addie also went out in the snow for the first time yesterday.  Crystal was shoveling snow and Addie wanted to go out, so we went out for just a few minutes and she loved it until she realized that touching snow makes her hands cold and hurt.  I guess it is time to get some snow gloves for her.

Hope everyone is enjoying their holiday season!
